Abstract

A general expression of the perfect matching number for thel x m x n cubic lattice was conjectured and examined for infinitely large systems. The asymptotic value of the square of the perfect matching number was calculated by numerical integration. The present treatment will give a key to obtain the true analytic solution of the perfect matching numbers for the 3-dimensional lattices.
